No, hoof and mouth is a different disease. It doesn't affect humans at all, but it is much more contagious amongst cloven hoof quadrapeds (beef, shhep, pigs, etc) it would be a big disaster for the USA.
Of course theres a separate disease called 'foot in mouth disease' that affects humans, especially politicians
All I know is that the Native Language of most App Developers is not English Have you seen the descriptions in the App store (especially Amazon which is where I get stuff)
Converting Aluminium Oxide to Aluminium is energy intensive, but it does not contribute to greenhouse gasses. The power for the smelter is supplied by hydro dams.
Something that was 2.3 times the size of the earth would be only about 12 times the mass of the earth if it were the same density since it is 17 times the mass it must be denser than the earth, presumably more iron/nickel than silicate rock.
way too much gravity for 'life as we know it, Jim'\
"Let's exaggerate the cost $100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. Let's also say at the end they pay for themselves and then some. You could take out a loan to pay for them"
You must have a very good credit rating if you can borrow $10^26
And who are you going to borrow it from? Theres not that much money on this planet.
If you could get that sort of money you could pay Magrathea to build you a whole new planet, and bribe the Vogons not to blow it up
Extra storage via microSDxc HDMI out some other way of charging besides microUSB (although it could still use microUSB for connecting to other devices. )
miniUSB is way more reliable for charging, the microUSB cables just fall out if you breathe.
And something all android tabs need - a Hard Reset Button for when it locks up, and you have to wait for the battery to go flat before you can use it again.

"technically a nearby gamma ray burst would fry just half the planet. with any luck it would be antarctica or somewhere similar."
I think the andromeda galaxy is visible from more than just the polar regions, so it could fry whatever side of the planet is facing it at the time.
Of course if the axis of the burst (the black hole that caused it) is not pointed exactly at us then it wouldn't be quite so dangerous.
A really close GRB (in our galaxy) might only fry one side of the planet immediately, but it would still be bad news from people on the other side of the planet, as the ozone layer would probably be wiped out, there would be a lot of skin cancer and plant life would also have problems. Probably some climate issues in the long run
and the psychic effect (cats and dogs, living together, mass hysteria...)
Science doesn't disprove "Creation" although scientific evidence does suggest that the event of Creation was 13 and a bit billion years ago. And the fossil evidence suggests that life on this planet has evolved over the last couple of billion years or so.
But both of those facts are contrary to the words of Genesis. So many Bible literalists refuse to acknowledge the facts.
Its easy enough to prove that the universe was around for way longer than 6,000 to 10,000 years, just look at other galaxies that are millions of light years away.

How does an anti-pac work? Do they pay the TV stations not to run the ads from the other super-pacs?
Why doesn't he just go to some other country that doesn't have an extradition treaty with the USA
EG North Korea, he'd fit right in with all the other Kim's there
"I meant to say 4000+ light years"
Whew I was a bit worried there. If there was another planet within 4000 miles of the earth the tidal effects would wipe us out.

That would make Tanzania a good place to build a skyhook/orbital tower

The amp is in the (bluetooth) speakers, not in the phone.
Anyway given the background noise, you'd probably want to listen on headphones.

Well they have The Doctor and I am sure he knows, he probably watched it happen

"when it fell back down it would make a new hole, eventually turning the Earth into Swiss cheese"
I think the molten rock would fill in the holes pretty quick
I am glad you converted that to metric because obviously a teaspoon can't hold any visible amount of neutronium, its not strong enough.
" an excess of the elements rubidium, lithium and molybdenum will be generated by the hybrid."
Just what we need, a hybrid that makes Lithium

A nearby star like Barnards Star would be possible (Flight of the DragonFly by Robert L Forward )

its less than that time if it was travelling at significant speed
So if they are a public utility they get to charge 10 x the amount shown on the dice
Surely this is the job of NSA not NASA
